From the Roots
I know a treetop in the moonlight
Where every Beast and Jackal hides
The ripest fruit, the ancient wines
•
And if you like forbidden tastes
You can pick the finest vine
Just squeeze the grapes
The feast divine •
The Devil's dancing, scheming
The candles calling out your name
I hear the belfry ringing
The leaves are starting to change
•
From the roots, from the roots
From the roots, from the roots

I see the smoke roll from the East side
And from the ash is born a tribe
•
If you listen, and wait
you may find
That if you tease the snake
It will make you lose your mind
•
The Devils dancing, singing
Them candles calling out in flames
I'm in the belfry screaming
The leaves are starting to shake
•
From the roots, from the roots
From the roots, from the roots (Greek Chorus)
The Youth is yearning
Our children chant for change#lyrics#poetry#music#worldsoul#worldsoulep#fromtheroots
